Answer:

D.scale a is more accurate than scale b

Explanation:

Given is :

Scale a shows weights rounded to four decimal places.

Scale b shows weights rounded to three decimal places.

We can define accuracy as the difference between the measurement and the part's actual value.

But precision is defined as the variation we get, when we measure the same part repeatedly with the same device.

Here, its not given that the scales were measured many times and the results were numerous. So, we can go with option D. Scale a is more accurate than scale b. As it shows up to 4 decimal places.
